SDG Enterprise Awards 2023

The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, adopted by all United Nations Member States in 2015, provides a shared blueprint for peace and prosperity for people and the planet, now and into the future. At its heart are the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which are an urgent call for action by all countries - developed and developing - in a global partnership.

To recognise companies’ contributions to the SDGs, Junior Chamber International Victoria (JCI Victoria) has organised the Sustainable Development Goals Enterprise Awards (SDG Enterprise Awards) annually since 2020. SDG Enterprise Awards 2023 builds upon the previous success and continues to recognise companies that actively promote and work towards sustainable development.
